While Andiron Group offers a public relations function as part of an overall approach to startup communications, we are always interested in promoting the improvement of public relations in Australia and mentoring the public relations and communications community to improve the standard. The PRIA has an excellent resource page that is worth visiting at http://www.pria.com.au/resources/student-resources (some links and descriptions below). While we don't agree with every tip, there is definite value here for those beginning a career in PR. In terms of public relations writing, our two pieces of advice are Strunk & White's Elements of Style and read widely (not just public relations industry-specific stuff either) and keep reading.
